I think that a great example of exploring the flaws in wish-making can be found whilst playing a game called Corrupt A Wish. The whole premise of the game is to receive the wish of another person and ruin it while still granting the original wish.

Ex.

W: I wish for a ton of money.

A: Granted, but the money is in a bank account you'll never gain access to.
